Pope Francis was briefly hospitalized in Rome on Wednesday after suffering from flu symptoms for a number of days.
The Vatican has yet to clarify the nature of the short visit. The pope had canceled appearances on both Saturday and Monday due to his flu symptoms, but he did make the traditional Sunday blessing.
