The ministry did not indicate which confirmed cases had visited these locations.
Those who had been identified as close contacts of confirmed cases would already have been notified by MOH, the ministry said in its statement.
Previously, it said that the list of places it puts out will not include residences, workplaces, healthcare facilities and public transport.
The MOH said it began providing this list from May 25 because there is likely to be a rise in new community Covid-19 cases after the circuit breaker ends on June 1 and so it is critical to detect and contain these cases quickly, and prevent large clusters from forming.
This list of public places that confirmed cases in the community had visited for more than 30 minutes will allow individuals who had been at these locations during the specified timings to take the precautionary measure to monitor their health closely for 14 days from their date of visit, the ministry said.
