Gf was fired after being sick with covid.

We live and work in Kansas, she is a social worker and was working with developmentally delayed children. We recently got Covid and it hit her pretty hard, her work gave her a few days off but she ended up having to take a few more due to lingering symptoms, she had gone back to the doctor and received additional prescriptions as well as a doctors note advising her to stay home. Shortly after returning to work they fired her for “not being a good fit” but it seems clear they fired her for being sick and having to take some time off. It feels wrong but I don’t know if there’s really anything we can do about it. Posting to vent but if anyone has any advice, or if there is a more appropriate sub to post in please let me know.
