The city's primary and secondary schools, kindergartens have a holiday in advance, that is, tomorrow begins the holiday. After the May Day holiday, the time of returning to school will be determined according to the epidemic situation.

Beijing has registered more than 100 COVID-19 cases in the latest outbreak and more than 30 percent of those infected are from schools and kindergartens, a senior official said on Wednesday.

The city reported 42 new locally transmitted confirmed cases and four new asymptomatic carriers between 4 pm on Tuesday and 3 pm on Wednesday. The city's total infections hit 138 since Friday and involve eight districts, said the Beijing Center for Disease Prevention and Control.

"One school in Chaoyang district had registered 36 cases so far."

"Schools have a relatively big number of people and some students have been to many other venues, especially after-school training institutions, which has increased the transmission risks," she added.

Tongzhou district reported three new cases from three different schools on Wednesday while Fangshan district reported two new cases from a middle school and a child-care institution.

Five people, including Jiang himself, tested positive for the virus. That caused more than 400 people to be quarantined and around 6,700 residents in eight communities to be placed under controlled management.

Jiang has been "criminally detained", Pan said.

At present, four people were detained for crimes and 48 people are in administrative detention for allegedly breaking COVID-19 restrictions and laws during the outbreak, he said.
