Symptom 1: Mercury is what we call mercury. Generally, liquefied mercury is not harmful to human body. Even if it is touched by people, as long as it is cleaned in time, there is no harm, but if it accidentally flows into the body or the gas produced by mercury, it will threaten our life and health.
