(ANSA) - ROME, FEB 20 - Pope Francis is continuing to do some work while he is being treated at Rome's Gemelli hospital for bronchitis and double pneumonia, Vatican sources said on Thursday.
    Francis "continues his treatment and also his work activity," the sources said, stressing that the head of the Catholic Church was only doing activities compatible with his illness and being in hospital.
    The sources said these activities included "reading and signing documents, telephone conversations" and speaking to "close aides".
    The 88-year-old Argentine pontiff's condition remains "stable", the sources said.
    A new official bulletin with medical updates is set to be issued later on Thursday. (see related). (ANSA).
