Iron Depletion in Blood related to COVID?

My daughter is 32 years old, had been a very healthy mom and had the Moderna vaccine in May. She was diagnosed as severely anemic in August after months of being extremely fatigued. Her iron levels were 4%! We did not connect this to the vaccine, initially, because she had the shot in May. Yesterday, I watched a prominent cardiologist give a talk and he warned that anemia caused by PNH was a possible result of the shots. I did some research and found a study. Because i am a newly registered member, I am not eligible to post the link. Here is the title of the study. COVID-19 vaccines induce severe hemolysis in paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria. I found it in Ash Publications, Volume 137, Issue 26
July 1 2021. If you google it, I am sure you can pull the article.
It uses a lot of medical terminology but as I understand it, it suggests indeed that all these people including my daughter could be experiencing an adverse reaction to the shots. Your thoughts?

- COVID-19 vaccines induce severe hemolysis in paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria https://ashpublications.org/blood/article/137/26/3670/475905/COVID-19-vaccines-induce-severe-hemolysis-in

This article presents case studies of 4 patients with a pre-existing condition called paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH). Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) is a rare acquired, life-threatening disease of the blood. The disease is characterized by destruction of red blood cells (hemolytic anemia), blood clots (thrombosis), and impaired bone marrow function (not making enough of the three blood components).

In these patients, it appears that the vaccine may induce worsening anemia.

Kvdp, does your daughter have PNH? How are doctors treating her low iron levels?
