A 5-year-old boy with Ebola-like symptoms, who recently arrived in America from Guinea, is being isolated at Bellevue Hospital in New York City.
The unidentified child is being tested for Ebola today because of his travel history and his 103 degree Fahrenheit fever, reports New York Post. The boy is in isolation, but not being quarantined yet.
The boy was also vomiting according to NY Post.
"He looked weak," a neighbor told NY Post. "He was really, really out of it."
Five members from the boy's family, who were also in Guinea, are reportedly being quarantined in their apartment, as anonymous sources told NY Post.
The 5-year-old boy's test results will be available today.
