Wish it was a proper academic paper with citations–kinda annoying having to track down its sources.
Don’t have time at the moment, but I did grab the paper which shows that the virus could have been present in the US as early as December 13-16 2019 on the west coast:
I’m on the west coast, and there were murmers of a “cold from hell” going around in Nov/Dec of 2019 until covid was officially recognized in the US around March. One of the first known detections of it was during a flu study during that time. Researchers retested some samples and it showed up. I got hit with something that made me nearly suffocate during that time and it completely freaked me out, and then a month later my roommate who also got sick suffered major organ failure, and later on heart attacks and other relentless vascular problems.

and this NIH study which also showed earlier cases than had been officially confirmed:
