Medical symbol

 

I understand that there is some controversy and differing opinions as to whether or not the Caduceus is a medical symbol, as opposed to the Rod of Asciepius.

While the more common medical symbol seems to be the Rod of Asciepius, I believe that one or the other may be used, depending upon which organization you are speaking about, as these articles show:

2023-12-14:  I've made a 2mm thick version available (the original one is 1.6mm thick).

 

Tip:  The tab on the bottom is designed for using something such as Sticky Tack (a reusable soft adhesive putty), to keep your artwork secure in even the strongest gale force winds :D

I've also made the positioning of the tab so that you can easily remove it during your slicing process, if you'd like to place the artwork on a wall.
