Gastroenteritis: Without knowing exactly what has caused your husband's symptoms it is difficult to advise. Would not kiss him, not come in contact with his secretions from any end of his GI tract and try to stay reasonably far away. Not easy, but could be of many sources.

Gastroenteritis: does not have airborne transmission but intimate contact (or maybe droplets) could spread it.
