General & Family Physician,  's  Response
It sounds more like a viral flu. It could be something that they ate, as some food relating illness are self-limiting and don't cause fever. They usually don't require antibiotics or hospitalisation.
Would I would recommend is plenty of fluids and soups to get over this phase. Also, do advise your niece and her mother about hand washing.
Arguments against spring flu (or the winter bug in some areas) include high fevers, blood stained diarrhoea with or without pain and a very sick patient. If this goes on longer than72 hours, it may be a point to have her seen by you local doctor. Hopefully the worse will be over by then.
