What About Jason’s Storyline?
As for how Burton’s Covid result would affect General Hospital, it doesn’t look like a lot will change. Since Burton was anyway stated to go on a tour with Brandon Anderson, so, this COVID won’t affect his filming. It might be adjusted with the time he would have been away.
Right now, Jason is in the front and center of General Hospital. He is supposed to get married to Carly. As the spoilers have it, Jason and Carly will pick out a date for their wedding in the upcoming days. Also, as Tvshowsace reported, Jason will also tackle the five families in the upcoming days. So, it doesn’t look like viewers will miss any action from Steve. He will soon get back to filming. That is indeed good news. We do hope that Steve tests negative soon.
