All the conditions are allegedly met assuming the story is true by my understanding.

The opinion of the doctor or interpreting pathologist would probably not hold up in court. Clots could be from any number of things that aren’t related to COVID, so I don’t know if they could prove COVID was the cause. If she was sick and on bed rest for a week, and if she was laying wrong then she could have caused a still birth herself. At least, that is what the defense would say. It would be hard to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that COVID caused the still birth, and with 100% certainty that she got COVID from her boss.

I’m aware of STD cases that won, but not COVID. Again, hard to prove. This happened at work too, and there seems to be a lot of states that have set up protections that may protect the business and the employees from litigation. I think a competent lawyer would be able to easily create doubt, even in this seemingly obvious example.
