(Reuters) - A 5-year-old boy who arrived from Guinea was being observed in isolation at Bellevue Hospital in New York City for possible Ebola symptoms, according to media reports Monday, as New York and New Jersey stuck to new plans to quarantine health workers returning from countries hardest hit by the virus.

The boy, who arrived in the United States on Saturday, had a 103 degree Fahrenheit (39 degrees Celsius) fever, ABC News reported. He has not been tested for the virus and was not under quarantine, ABC said, citing New York City health department officials.

The New York Post said the boy had been vomiting and was taken from his home in the Bronx by emergency medical workers.

Dear Speaker Boehner,

If a child dies from Ebola,

would that be enough for an impeachment?

If not, could you at least stop kissing Obama's ass?

My great grandmother died in 1918 when she volunteered to help her neighbors. I believe it was cholera. They all lived. She died. My 6 year old grandmother became the “mother” to her 6 month old brother. She said she hated their family. Their little girls had a mother to tie bows in their hair. She eventually forgave, but said it was hard

So true. Just look at the idiots in this admin that won’t block fliers from there from entering here. They should all be quarantined before they leave that country.

Yes, that’s got to be the mindset with this. But it’s the numbskulls in Washington that are allowing this to spread.

The US biowarfare lab apparently effed up and let it out in New Guinea

Right there on the east side of Indonesia?

Wow. Who knew.

Common core geography, perhaps?

All they need is a layover in Honolulu, and O’hair for the Subud Trifecta.

They’re not numbskulls. It’s intentional.
