4月1日,梵蒂岡稱它將于今天晚些時候就教皇保羅二世的病情發(fā)表一份新的聲明。84歲的教皇已接受了多為臨終病人準備的圣餐禮，他的健康狀況“非常嚴重”。

A Vatican official dismissed as "rubbish" Italian media reports that Pope John Paul had fallen into a coma.

On Friday morning, the Vatican described the Pope's health as "very grave" after the 84-year-old suffered heart failure.

Later, two Italian news agencies and the teletext service of Italian state broadcaster RAI reported the Pope had fallen into a coma. But the Vatican official knocked the reports down.

Vatican spokesman Joaquin Navarro-Valls was due to brief reporters on the Pope's health at 5:30-6:00 a.m. EST.

Earlier, Navarro-Valls said the Pope had received the "Holy Viaticum" communion which is reserved for those near death, and had told his aides he did not want to return to hospital for treatment.

The Vatican statement said the Pope was still "conscious, lucid and tranquil" and had celebrated Mass as dawn broke, but senior clergy indicated that his life was ebbing away.
