Actor Steve Burton, star of ABC’s “General Hospital,” claims he was fired from the show for failing to get the COVID-19 vaccine after applying for medical and religious exemptions.

In a video posted to Instagram on Tuesday, Burton, who first joined the soap series in 1992, said he was aware that there have been multiple reports regarding his refusal to comply with the vaccine mandate and that he wanted his fans to “hear it from me personally.”
