The new viruses created in the research gained human transmissibility.

Maybe it doesn't fit whatever loose definition of gain of function exists in the field, but, in layman's terms, it gained a function and it definitely sounds like risky research.

The article mentions nothing of the sort. Can you provide any reference that supports your baseless assertion?
