If many amounts are injected orally, it can kill a human.

If Mercury (quicksilver) is left in a room where animals or human live, its fumes will slowly cause poisoning and death. This kind of death is easily detected by forensic medicine.

Mercury can kill humans, it all depends on the mercury your talking about, there is some mercury that you can buy off the internet that i call element mercury which isn't as dangerous but i still do not recomend holding it or drinking it, i myself have held element mercury but, again, i do not recomend holding mercury.

According to the medical institute of Rathford Medical Diagnostics, Mercury attaches to human cells creating a substance known as h2Lima creating a non fighting protein omega three. Thes lipids are depelted in fast numbers. A study done of women over the age of 23 indicated the chances of receiving mercury poisining at an alarming rate of 1 out of 5 with the posibility of becoming sick within three days after eating fish.

Mercury can kill people, but only if there is a lot in your system, like a liquid bullet. Your body does not break it down, so it stays with you. Seafood has more mercury than other foods generally. NOT to say that Seafood is bad, just everything in moderation.
