Answer:Short term contact with Mercury isn't enough to cause you harm short term. In long term contact situations, It is a heavy metal and can work its way to your DNA and effect reproduction. The same thing is true on flourescent light bulbs. They have mercury vapor in them and you can become exposed to it if they break.
