Pope Leo Recovers From Lung Surgery as Vatican Runs on Autopilot

Original: While Leo Recovers From Lung Surgery, the Church Runs on Autopilot

Pope Leo is recovering from lung surgery, and the Catholic Church is carrying on its daily operations without him. The New York Times reports that with the pontiff sidelined, routine governance has been left to the Vatican's existing machinery, prompting discussion about how the institution functions during a papal absence and what his recovery period means for Church leadership.

Why now: The health of a pope and the question of who leads the Church in his absence naturally draw global attention.
