It’s totally gain of function:
They created a modified version of Omicron that they label Omicron S bearing virus. They say Omicron S Bearing virus escapes vaccine induced immunity and their modified Omicron virus causes a mortality in mice of 80%, which is gain of function. They literally say the chimeric virus they created robustly escapes vaccine induced immunity, which is literally gain of function, which was made illegal to do in the US in 2015.
