Cardinal Gualtiero Bassetti, Archbishop of Perugia-Città della Pieve, abandoned resuscitation, where he was hospitalized for a few days after his conditions worsening, due to the contraction of Cvodi19.

The prelate began to feel somewhat better yesterday and today’s timid progress convinced the doctors to transfer him to a room in the Covid Pavilion, run by Dr. Cecilia Becattini (the same pavilion where he had been hospitalized at the first moment of his arrival at Santa Maria della Misericordia).

The cardinal is always on oxygen, but breathes better and is constantly monitored.

“We appreciate the news that our Cardinal Archbishop Gualtiero Bassetti has left the Covid 2 Intensive Care Unit to be treated again at the Covid 1 Emergency Medicine center of the” Santa Maria della Misericordia di Perugia “Hospital where he was hospitalized on 31 October “. To say this, when communicating the news to the diocesan community of Perugia-Pievese, it is the auxiliary bishop Monsignor Marco Salvi, still asymptomatic positive in Covid-19.

“It is comforting to know that Cardinal Bassetti has just been discharged from intensive care – says Bishop Salvi-, because it confirms the ‘slight improvement’ in his state of health announced by the doctors in the bulletin issued on November 13 by the Hospital address. However, the clinical picture remains serious and the cardinal needs constant monitoring and adequate care. That is why it is necessary to continue incessantly in prayer for our Pastor, for all the sick and for the health workers who care for them. Our sincere gratitude and appreciation goes to them for what they do every day to alleviate the suffering of so many patients ”.
