A red plus sign, also known as the "Rod of Asclepius," is commonly used as a symbol for healthcare and medical professionals. It originates from Greek mythology, where Asclepius was the god of medicine and healing. The symbol is associated with healing and medicine due to its historical significance and recognition as a universal medical symbol.
The symbol is a "red cross" indicating medical facilities and personnel, such as combat medics. The international aid and relief organizations Red Cross and Red Crescent also use the symbol. It was adopted by the 1864 Geneva Convention as a marker designating a "protected facility," one involved in treating the sick and injured.
