Some actual lab work? I’m not a biologist so I can’t give you specific assays. The TWiV team might, I’ll submit a question. If you look at the data behind the NERVTAG report it’s extremely noisy, and is circumstantial. Nothing in there directly measures the viruses ability to spread.

The UK is a giant lab right now and the results of the experiment are in: https://twitter.com/mugecevik/status/1341094871822680067?s=2...

What could explain that data other than increased transmissibility?

We’ll have to wait for actual science to come in to answer that. They’re just making inferences from epidemiology and gene sequences. None of this actually does anything to confirm their hypothesis.
