Due to the spread of the new coronavirus, many Japanese schools in Mainland China have taken measures to significantly extend their holidays during the Lunar New Year's Lunar New Year.

The Chinese government has decided to extend the holiday of the Chinese New Year, which had been until this month, to the second day of next month in order to curb the spread of the new coronavirus.

In addition, schools have been notified by local education authorities to provide longer breaks to prevent transmission to students and teachers, and many Japanese schools have taken additional measures.
