COVID employer retaliation

Hey so I have a question, someone I know who caught covid is being harassed by her employer for testing positive after she had worked a couple of days at work. My friend wasn’t aware she had contracted covid. So once she tested positive it was too late and it spread to some coworkers. Her job is texting her saying shit like “you took the whole office “ “ you should’ve stayed home”, pretty much victim blaming. Where is the line between just being unprofessional and blatant employer retaliation? So far it seems like an annoyance and disrespectful, but what should she look out for if that line is crossed?
