ββWhy is a 'Red Cross' used as a medical symbol?
The sign of the Red Cross is associated with Red Cross Society, which is a voluntary organisation in the field of medical services. It was founded by Henry Dunant about 150 years ago. The sign is always found on hospitals, nursing homes, clinics, dispensary, ambulances, etc. The Blue Cross was introduced in the US but it is not as popular as the Red Cross, which is found worldwide. The reason crosses are used and associated with medical professions is mainly because of its use by the International Red Cross Society The Red Cross emblem was based on the design of the Swiss national flag. The red cross emblem canβt actually be used by doctors or anyone else, as itβs regarded as an internationally protected symbol.
The international Red Cross organization had won noble prize for its work for three times. Coming to the matter, red cross is named for offering unconditional help to the people in need. So, medical field, which also offers life saving services to the people adopted this symbol. That is the reason why hospitals and ambulances use red color plus symbol.

Before you argue with someone ask yourself " is this person mentally mature enough to grasp the concept of different perspectives?" if not there is no point to argue.

ββHow do QR codes work?
QR codes are a technology that desperately wants our attention. They appear everywhere from supermarket shelves and magazines to hiking trails and tombstones.
QR (Quick Response) code is the trademark name for the two dimensional barcode system. It was originally invented in 1994 by Denso Wave, a Toyota subsidiary, as a way to track vehicles as they were assembled, and to scan components at high speeds. While Denso Wave does hold the patent on the technology, it has granted free licence on it, going so far as to publish the spec online, and allowing anyone to use it.
The conventional one dimensional barcodes used on virtually every consumer product are mechanically scanned. That is, they're read by physically bouncing a narrow beam of light onto the code, which can be interpreted using the pattern of light reflected off the white gaps between the lines.
A QR code works by encoding data in a certain way (a certain standard) so scanning software can interpret the results. For example, normal barcodes on products are considered 1D barcodes. The lines are different widths that correspond to numbers. Software interprets those line widths as numbers.
Same with the QR code; the location of each block is interpreted by the software and the combination of a bunch of blocks combine to represent certain characters. Combine the characters and you can get a URL for example.
If you add logic in the scanning software that opens a browser and goes to the link when the encoded data looks like a URL (with http://), you have added the functionality of translating printed material into digital material.
