Sure, and...: ...supportive care is certainly warranted at this time. If this is the same "bug", it should run its course just like everyone else at school (unless your son is immunocompromised or otherwise at risk). BUT, if fever, unremitting vomiting, bloody stool, significant abdominal pain, signs of dehydration, persistent symptoms then don't hesitate to get him a medical evaluation & treatment.
