When Peru Ran Out of Oxygen, One Bishop Refused to Let People Die — He Is Pope Leo XIV Today

Pope Leo XIV oxygen plants Peru: the untold true story of how Bishop Robert Prevost refused to let his people die during the COVID-19 oxygen crisis in Chiclayo. When Peru ran out of oxygen and dying families were charged a fortune for a single tank, the future Pope Leo the Fourteenth walked into the contagion, launched the "Oxygen of Hope" campaign, and bought not one but two oxygen plants — giving the air away for free and saving more than 8,500 lives. This is why the poor of northern Peru still call him "the saint of the north." A true, heartbreaking, and inspiring chapter of Pope Leo XIV's life almost no one outside Peru knows.
