Hi,
Thank you for asking question on health care magic.
Your history suggests that your son is suffering from food poisoning.
Usually there is history of taking some outside food and all the people who consume that food suffer from similar illness simultaneously.
Better take him to ER immediately.
Hope this answer will serve your purpose
Please feel free to ask any more queries if required
Take care
