‘There is no evidence that would lead to diagnosing anything but a mild indisposition’

VATICAN CITY — The Vatican moved on Friday to dismiss speculation that Pope Francis was anything more than “slightly unwell” as the 83-year-old Roman Catholic leader cancelled official audiences for the second day.At his general audience on Wednesday he appeared to have a cold and spoke with a slightly hoarse voice, and he coughed during an afternoon Ash Wednesday service in a Rome church, his last appearance outside the Vatican.

“But he thought it was best to postpone today’s official audiences. The meetings scheduled to take place in Santa Marta will take place regularly,” Bruni said. His speech to them from the Apostolic Palace was to have been streamed to participants of a conference in Rome on ethics in Artificial Intelligence .

The pope usually spends mornings making speeches to groups and meeting heads of state in the Vatican’s Apostolic Palace.
