Does the host have to stay in the main room when using breakout rooms?

I'm running a meeting with about 100 people and plan to open 5 breakout rooms. I will have a co-host. Am I able to assign myself to a breakout room and the co-host can move between meetings? This would mean no-one in the main meeting at times. Just checking if this is possible...thank you

Hi Jennie,
As long as one host remains in the main meeting, it should not end the meeting
