Your husband should be tested to confirm he has covid. It's very likely in this situation, but conceivably he has a different infection, like a common cold or flu. A home self test will be fine. If positive, the same strain won't infect him on top of his first infection and will not make his symptoms worse. You won't need to quarantine from him any more. Good luck.
