It came after the Vatican issued an unusual and official denial of an Italian media report that said Parolin and the pope&#8217;s chief canonist had visited Francis in the hospital in secret. Given the canonical requirements to make a resignation legitimate, the implications of such a meeting were significant, but the Vatican flat-out denied that any such meeting occurred.<\/p>\n<p>Parolin said such speculation seemed &#8220;useless&#8221; when what really mattered was the health of Francis, his recovery and return to the Vatican.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;On the other hand, I think it is quite normal that in these situations uncontrolled rumors can spread or some misplaced comment is uttered. It is certainly not the first time it has happened,&#8221; Parolin was quoted as saying. &#8220;However, I don&#8217;t think there is any particular movement, and so far I haven&#8217;t heard anything like that.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- data-recirc-source=\"queryly\" --><\/p>\n<aside class=\"component list recirculation component--type-recirculation \"\/><!-- tags --><\/div>\n<p><script async
