Yes, to "go down" here specifically refers to getting sick. In general, to "go down" in this context means that when something negative happens to one thing, the other thing will suffer or receive the negative consequences as well. Ex: If I get fired, that means you're going down too. Ex: If I fall, you're going right down with me.
