I would hold off on that conversation until he is feeling better.
+1.

I really think you need to relax about it all this until you can discuss it when he is feeling better and you are in a neutral place. While I understand the urge looking for a "voice of reason" or the perfect way of deciding an argument, it almost never works that way. In the end this is a test of if you two can work out your different viewpoints and reach a situation where all get along happily. Maybe you can, maybe you can't, maybe you should, maybe you shouldn't. But do wait until he is better to try. And when you do have a chat about it don't say "you said so and so..." - but reach for a clean slate, let him express himself without being shacked to defending what he said when he was sick. A relationship usually requires tolerance and flexibility to some degree. You've both got some work to do on that front from the sounds of it.
