What Causes Chills Along With Fatigue And Body Ache?

This is a 23 yr old male who has been healthy and over the last 6-8 weeks has had symptoms on and off of chills, fever, fatigue, body ache, back pain and it is interfering with his life now. He had a trip to Florida in February. Is there any chance it is Malaria? He does not smoke, drink or use drugs.
