Beijing closed dozens of subway stations and expanded Covid restrictions constricting movement around the Chinese capital despite logging only dozens of daily cases.
Beijing reported 51 local infections, five of them asymptomatic, while Shanghai reported nearly 5,000.
Municipal government spokesman Xu Hejian told reporters that the capital would temporarily extend its tightened Covid curbs including a ban on restaurant dine-ins and suspension of entertainment venues and gyms.
Officials initially said the ramped-up curbs would apply to the traditionally busy Labour Day break ending Thursday.
