The Pope and Dr. Tedros had previously met in 2018, during which they discussed ‘healthcare.’
Pope Francis received the director general of the pro-abortion World Health Organization (WHO) in a private audience at the Vatican this morning.
Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, the current director general of the WHO, met with Pope Francis in private audience July 24, in a meeting which was only announced afterwards in the Holy See’s daily bulletin.
No further details were released by the Vatican, and LifeSite’s requests for comments were not returned by time of publication.
Tedros, who has led the WHO as director general since 2017, previously met Pope Francis in 2018 when they discussed “ways to ensure that all people can obtain the healthcare they need, whoever they are, wherever they live.” Tedros praised Pope Francis’ “support for our effort to extend the right of life and health to all people.”
