So, I get every other symbol and reach the caduceus, which I have only ever seen on the signs of pharmacies and other medical organizations. I spent the better part of three minutes trying every possible variation of the words medicine and pharmacy. Only after the quiz do I discover that the caduceus erroneously takes the place of the Rod of Asclepius on 76% of commercial healthcare organizations in the United States.

Yeah, not accepting "medicine", "medical", "doctor", "physician", "medic" (all of which I tried), etc., doesn't really make any sense, since the other accepted answers for the more abstracted symbols are what the symbol *represents*, not what the symbol *is*.
Walacama

It does not represent medicine, it represents commerce. Stupid commercial healthcare organizations use it because they are stupid. Most doctors and professional medical associations use the correct symbol, the Rod of Asclepius.

Ah, I gotcha! I didn't even know the difference between the caduceus and the Rod of Asclepius for the exact reason you said, Walacama: in the US there is SUCH widespread misuse of the caduceus, that the Rod of Asclepius – the CORRECT symbol for medical uses – looks completely unfamiliar to me! I'm going to start Twitter-shaming places like those 24-hour urgent care chains who are misusing the caduceus on their web sites. Thanks for the education, Quizmaster and commenters!!

That infinity symbol isn't called that but called the lemniscate. The lemniscate is used as a symbol for infinity. At the very least, the word "lemniscate" should be accepted as an answer also.

A crescent is a crescent. Apparently reading your and one other comment there is something called specifically red crescent, but that is not the only crescent out there. (Like heart is probably used for many things, the symbol is still a heart though)
Yanni47

level 66

But if only a crescent is asked for, it should have a neutral color. They are not typically displayed in red, unlike a heart. So, if it IS red, it should be called a red crescent.
