...always digging up stuff on Google to discredit WHO. I bet you were waiting for someone to tell you the snake is related to AntiChrist, Illuminati or 5G.

Una go get sense by force.

"The staff with the snake has long been a symbol of medicine and the medical profession. It originates from the story of Asclepius, who was revered by the ancient Greeks as a god of healing and whose cult involved the use of snakes. (Asclepius, incidentally, was so successful at saving lives that, the legend goes, Hades the god of the underworld complained about him to the supreme god Zeus who, fearing that the healer might make humans immortal, killed Asclepius with a thunderbolt."

It was adopted by WHO and medical pharmaceuticals as a symbol of healing which dates back to the time of Moses when God told him to mould a brazen serpent and that anyone bitten by a snake who looks upon the moulded snake will be healed.
So WHO adopted it as a symbol of healing.

Check the staff of OBATALA before Moses.
