      I’m not sure if it applies to journalism, but when I do things like write reports about medicals I was involved in, I write like that. Usually because that person goes on to definitive care and I don’t know how they fared. Patient was found in this location, services were called, patient was transported to hospital. It feels robotic, but idk how best to handle it.

      This is journalistic style. The goal isn’t to say X was the cause of Y but that it’s reported that Y because of X.
