“All other commitments will go ahead.”
It is not clear what his symptoms were, but he was seen blowing his nose and coughing during an Ash Wednesday service in St Peter’s yesterday.
Earlier yesterday – the first day of Lent – Francis appeared in good spirits as he greeted a large crowd at a general audience in St Peter’s Square.
Many of the faithful wore face masks, but others did not as they embraced the Holy Father.
What a thoughtful man. Go out and shake hands with a horde of people while you’re sick.
And note how the health department spokespeople are telling us that it’s just a cold really except for a tiny minority’s of people with preexisting serious heart / lung conditions but meanwhile all of the medical staff involved in quarantining contaminated carriers are dressed as if walking through a radioactive death center Hardly credible And why did the original Dr Whistleblower die and then the head Dr and his entire family ? Did they all have serious pre existing heart or lung conditions ?
None of this passes the sniff test. The one person that had it here in WA is fine now. This whole thing is about money and fear.
People get colds It’s natural Old people die of something sooner or later Everyone’s so paranoid now about everything it’s a good thing they all believe work is dignity and liberty or no one would want to go
Poor dear, there isn’t any disease going around the Catholic Abomination Church is there???
