I'm not sure about FOOF, but that's definitely not the case with hydrofluoric acid. With hydrofluoric acid, depending on the concentration, burn symptoms can take several hours to manifest, luring victims of accidents into a false sense of security and causing them to delay seeking treatment.
Wikipedia states her blood mercury level at 4 mg/L with 0.2mg/L in the urine (i.e. getting excreted at a decent rate) five months after the alleged incident.
Ignoring exponential decay, in five months at one liter a day she would have shed 30mg (so actual numbers were way higher).
Is it a typo/error or does this actually mean she was killed by way more mercury than a few drops through the glove?
The actual amount was was probably in the tens or so of milligrams. "A milligram" is a slightly hyperbolic way of saying "a very small amount", down in the small-fractions-of-a-gram level.
I forget that not everyone on the Internet is aware of English idiom.
