My baby has a temp of 38.5 coughing, vomiting and diharrea. he is 8 months old. should i take him to emergency?

Depends: Breathing effectively enough to be pink? Keeping down enough to wet a diaper every 6-8 hrs? Playing some intermittently ? If he fills these basics I don't consider the issue an emergency. I would have him seen in a few days if it doe not improve.
