Also with the covid vaccine in sight I don't want to be one of the last casualties.

If you are going to look for another job, it is much easier to do it while you still have one. Leaving now with all the uncertainty is probably not a good idea ... and many companies aren't hiring yet. But still get your CV ready and send them out in Jan (?). I think it helps to know you are actively doing something about your situation even if you hate your current job.

If you really are going to take a gap year, I think you'll still be employable in +1 year assuming you have a good story to tell (doesn't necessarily have to be 100% true). Key concerns I would have beyond the $ to last you (which apparently you do) are any debts, obligation etc. and medical insurance.
