Pope’s condition worsens

This is really the only story today, with everything else just slotting around it. It’s clearly a very distressing story, to see a frail old man dying in such a public way. But it really seems too early to be commenting on a man’s death when it has yet to occur, so I’ll say no more on the subject for now.
