Among the 37 new sites is the Bright Bees Childcare in Nicholls, which has been listed as an exposure site for a four-day period after the lockdown started.
The exposure sites include 8am to 5pm on Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday.
Anyone at the venue during any of those four days is considered a close contact.
There are now more than 360 exposure sites across the ACT.
Other venues include multiple venues in Wanniassa, including the Woolworths on several days, Crust Pizza, the NewsXpress newsagent, the Erindale Pharmacy, the Butcher Shop and the China Tea House.
People who were at those venues at the times listed by ACT Health have been urged to monitor symptoms.

Venues at Canberra Centre have also been named on the updated list, including Coles, Guzman y Gomez, 85 Degrees and Oliver Brown.
The entire shopping centre has also been listed as an exposure site between 1pm and 5pm on Wednesday, August 18.
Exposure sites were listed in Phillip at the Chemist Warehouse last Tuesday, Cooleman Court Woolworths, Gungahlin Woolworths and the Zambrero in Weston Creek.
The new exposure sites come as the ACT recorded 19 new cases on Sunday, with 12 of those linked to Canberra's disability community.
Of those 19 cases, six were infectious in the community.
Health authorities have urged Canberrans to come forward for testing, after lower rates in recent days following record highs at the beginning of the lockdown.

I've been part of the Canberra Times since 2016, after reporting at local papers in Sydney's north-west. Since starting at the paper I've had stints on the Sunday Times, on the early morning breaking news round, and now as a general reporter, covering the ins and outs of anything and everything happening in Canberra, with a focus on health.
