My nephew just turned 12 and he went to a small hospital . They took him by ambulance to rapid city sd reginal hospital. They say he has some respitory problem. My other nephew said eboli or something like that. Is that possible? Or do you think it is just another virus going around. I read a little on eboli and it does not seem like he would be able to get that in ou small town of 400 people.
