Dec 25: Medical staff in two Wuhan hospitals contract the viral pneumonia and are quarantined. This is additional strong evidence of human-to-human transmission.

Late Dec: According to New England Journal of Medicine ( https://www.nejm.org/doi/10.1056/NEJMoa2001316Wuhan) hospitals notice “an exponential increase” in the number of cases that cannot be linked back to the Huanan Seafood Wholesale Market.

Dec 31: Wuhan Municipal Health Commission: “The investigation so far has not found any obvious human-to-human transmission & no medical staff infection.” This is the exact opposite of what doctors working on patients in Wuhan had seen. http://wjw.wuhan.gov.cn/front/web/showDetail/2019123108989
Dec 31: Three weeks after doctors first started noticing the cases, China finally contacts the @WHO. https://www.who.int/csr/don/05-january-2020-pneumonia-of-unkown-cause-china/en/
Jan 1: The Wuhan Public Security Bureau issued summons to Dr Li Wenliang (the original whistleblower) accusing him of “spreading rumors.” Two days later, at a police station, Dr. Li signed a statement acknowledging his “misdemeanor” & promising not to commit more “unlawful acts.”
Seven other people are arrested on similar charges and their fate is unknown. https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2020/the-2019-coronavirus-virus-lands-in-the-u-s-after-killing-17-and-taking-eight-to-prison/

Jan 2: A study in Wuhan connected 27 out of 41 infected patients to the Huanan wet market, indicating human-to-human transmission away from the market. A report written later concludes “evidence so far indicates human transmission for 2019-nCoV". https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140-6736(20)30183-5/fulltext
Jan 2: The Wuhan Institute of Virology completed mapped the genome of the virus. The Chinese government would not announce that breakthrough for another week.
