Been working on this article. 2 hours in and I've finished 2 sections. I'll continue after bed. It's almost 5 am, if I continue this, my sanity will drop.
For those wondering about how I get the time to do this shit, I can work from home when I want to. Which I am doing right now. In preparation of the virus, I took many days and nights to finish all the required tasks that demanded me to travel (workplace is open 24/7), under the wrath of Coronachan.
Here's the unpolished translation so far. I've inserted some footnotes. The paragraphs are massive and don't flow well, that's the nature of such translations. I'll break it down after I complete it and start proof-reading etc.

Section 1: Dr Li Wenliang’s background information, Wechat chatlogs, and the spread of information
Li Wenliang, Male, Manchu ethnic, born in October, 1985, from Jin Zhou of Liao Ning, member of the CPC. He sadly passed away due to being infected with the new coronavirus on the 7th of February. He was an ophthalmologist working at Wuhan Central Hospital.
December, 2019, Chinese Western Fusion Hospital [1] of Hubei province, the “Houhu” area of Wuhan Central Hospital, Wuhan Redcross Hospital etc accepted patients with an unknown case of pneumonia. 27th of December, Chinese Western Fusion Hospital of Hubei province (CWH), Zhang Ji, the manager of the department of respiratory and critical illness reported information on 3 patients diagnosed with an unknown case of pneumonia. The hospital relayed this information to the department of disease control of Jiang Han district, city of Wuhan [2]. On the same day, the department of disease control of Wuhan tested these 3 patients for epidemic-related viruses. On the 29th of December, CWH reported on 4 cases of unknown pneumonia, all from Huanan Seafood market [3]. The Health Department of Wuhan organised experts for investigation, and brought the patients to Jin Yin Tan Hospital of Wuhan. Knowing that many hospitals in the city handled similar cases, the Department of Health of Wuhan released two reports, “Emergency: Relating to Unknown Cases of Pneumonia and their Conditions” and “Emergency: Relating to the Handling of this Case of Unknown Pneumonia” on 13:10 and 18:50 respectively, on 30/12/2019. They wanted professionals to handle the unknown pneumonia with care, and investigate Huanan Seafood Market in retrospect. These two reports were released online on 15:22 and 19:00 respectively, on the same day.

On 17:43, Dr Li under the pseudonym of “Li Wenliang, Wuhan, Ophthalmology” appeared in the Wechat group “University of Wuhan, Clinical Grade 04” shared information regarding to “Huanan Fruit and Seafood market, 7 cases of SARS has been verified”, “we are waiting for the Hou Hu area of the hospital to quarantine these critical conditions” etc. He included images of a pathogen report stating “Highly likely, SARS Coronavirus, tested positive”, CT video footage that is 11 seconds. On 18:42, further information was released in this group stating “new information, verified infection of coronavirus, we are analysing the virus”, “please don’t spread this, let family and friends be aware and take appropriate measures [4]”. Simultaneously, similar messages were shared among other Wechat groups. The reports that were uploaded online and Dr Li’s words was them spread, subsequently people began discussing the case and following it.

Many media outlets reported on this case. With the knowledge of Wuhan’s schedule to control the unknown pneumonia, the police department’s knowledge on controlling and preventing the virus, social law and order enforcement laws, in addition to the health department’s report, law enforcement subsequently investigated the spread of “SARS related viral infection” messages online.

Section Three: Details on Dr Li Wenliang’s infection, emergency procedures, and curing attempt
This section is full of highly technical medical jargon, I do not look forward to translating it, there's terms that I don't even know how to read, let alone the meaning in Chinese or English. Someone should proof read this part and fix up my mistakes.
Section Four: Details on the reparations and aftercare of Dr Li Wenliang
Section Five: Advice on future work
[1]: Yeah, that’s literally the fucking name.
[2]: The disease was first report on 27/12/2019
[3]: So the first cases of the virus were NOT from this market. This is basically China saying they have and know the identity of “patient zero”.
[4]: He was reprimanded for spreading rumours, lol.
[5]: Department of Health said this.
[6]: Chinese law prohibits the release of full names of individuals unless under extraordinary circumstances, this is done to protect the criminal and law enforcement. I partly agree, some names such as those of child molesters should be released however. Yang… An is Yang [redacted] An, 某 means “one, some person someone, some word…”.
[7]: Shut up goy.
[8]: No idea what they meant by 認識材料
