These can be signs of parvo but these are also signs of other various gastrointestinal infections that are non parvo related and usually easier to treat, you will still need to take Serj to your vet ASAP in order to get it checked and treated, a fecal snap test can be done on spot to rule out parvo to begin with and then your vet will treat it according to the result.
