Legal Question in Disability Law in New York

My job terminated me and 2 other people after we submitted paperwork from our primary care physicians regarding being people with pre-existing conditions making us high risk for covid-19. I have asthma and another individual has a heart issue. What steps can I take if I wanted to sue for discrimination?
