"Steve Burton's Comeback to 'General Hospital' Sparks Buzz on His New Storyline"
Steve Burton is set to return to the soap opera "General Hospital" after being fired in November 2021 for refusing to comply with the Covid vaccine mandate. His return was announced during an ABC special celebrating the show's 60th anniversary. Burton, who has played the character Jason Morgan since 1991, had expressed hope for a return if vaccine mandates were lifted. He has been working on "Days of Our Lives" but filmed his last episode there on Jan. 4. Fans can expect to see his character back on "General Hospital" in early 2024.
