Pope Francis passed away from a stroke that led to a coma and “irreversible” heart failure, according to his death certificate released by the Vatican on Monday. The 88-year-old pontiff died Monday morning, nearly a month after being discharged from a five-week hospital stay where he had battled severe double pneumonia. He died at 7:35 a.m. (0535 GMT) in his apartment at the Santa Marta residence within the Vatican. The death certificate cited “cerebral stroke, coma, irreversible cardiocirculatory collapse” as the official cause. The document also noted that Francis had previously suffered an episode of acute respiratory failure due to double pneumonia. Additionally, it revealed that he had arterial hypertension, multiple bronchiectasis, and Type 2 diabetes — the latter not previously disclosed to the public. The certificate was signed by Professor Andrea Arcangeli, director of health for the Vatican City State.
