He isn't taking anything due to altered taste sensation because of the cold. Breastfeeding soothes him and helps allay stress, hence he prefers it. But u have to keep trying. If he doesn't prefer solids, atleast give him soups that will help with the cold and cough.
Work with your pediatrician on improving his immunity and slowly his appetite will improve
