Two children who recently traveled to West Africa are being tested for Ebola in Columbus, Ohio, after they showed symptoms of fever.
The children, whose names have not been released, are 4 and 6 years old. They were transported to an area hospital at 2 a.m. Sunday, according to a local news report, citing Columbus Public Health.
Health officials were previously monitoring the two children on a daily basis, after they returned to the U.S. The children are now being screened for the virus, as well as respiratory illnesses.
