What Causes Sore Throat, Body Ache, Cough And Tiredness?

my husband was painting with oil paint about two weeks ago, in his shed for three days straight. he is 39 years old. Now he is sick, coughing to the point he urges, sore throat, aching body, and very tired. but no fever, and he is cold all the time. can this be from the fumes, or just a virus.
