Absolutely tell him. There's two options, let's see what's the worst that can happen in every circumstance:

* He is indeed sick. In this case the worst that can happen is that they will die.

* He isn't sick, you are just imagining things. In this case the worst that can happen is that you made a bit of a fool of yourself. Potentially embarrasing yourself in front of a fellow employee. I guess there's a small possibility of him taking it the wrong way, I suppose.

It's death on one hand versus a personal embarrassment/awkardness on the other. To me the choice is clear.

Maybe he will get so offended you were smelling his shit and commented on it that he reports you to the top ranking officials of the organization resulting in the death penalty.
