Husband wants to leave the country

So my husband wants to leave the country to go to my home country in Africa in December for 2-3 months just for a break from all that’s happened in the US. We freelance so we can afford to leave anytime and work is slow during this time anyway.

Problem is Covid is there just like here. We have been living safe here by staying home and caring for our little girl. We don’t go out except for walks and grocery shopping, my husband does that.

I was unsure of this idea because my husband is very social. And more and more when he would speak about the trip, he keeps saying we need to plan it but I see it not needing any plan because our way of living won’t change. We will basically be in a new environment, eating fresh foods and taking nature walks. He sounds like there is no Covid there and we even got in an argument because he says I don’t understand the disease and all he needs is a mask, when he gets there he wants to do things. That’s when I told him I’m not going because i don’t see him being safe, my home country there is no personal space to begin with, markets are usually crowded and since this this pandemic started the government has downplayed it and isn’t truthful at all. They still had churches open etc:

Anyway what do you guys think?

I told him I’m not going because I’ll just end up fighting him when we get there or be very stressed of his ways.
