Teacher rights-teaching online in hospital with covid?

Hi, I would love some advice or help as I'm a bit out of my league. My nephew (Lets call him Bob) started his first international teaching job last year and has gotten Covid. He told his supervisor, who told him he has to keep working online as the supervisor can't get any cover. Bob will be hospitalized but he was told he has to teach online. Bob is working in primary in a Middle Eastern school- what are his rights in this regard? Could he be fired for not being able (either physically or mentally) to work online? If you could offer some advice I'd greatly appreciate it.

Thanks and stay safe
