TIL Hydrofluoric acid is an extremely dangerous poison that, when it contacts your skin, it reacts with the calcium ions in your blood to produce calcium fluorine, an insoluble compound

Why is it often said that vaping fluorinated compounds is more dangerous ? What is the science behind this ?
EPA grossly underestimated "safe" levels of fluorinated compounds in drinking water - Both PFOS and PFOA, as well as other similar compounds, have been detected in the Cape Fear River, the Haw River, Lake Michie in Durham, and Jordan Lake, and in the drinking water in Cary and Wilmington.

What did the man say to the kid who left a tub of Fluorine on his yard
A microbe that lives in the soil of New Jersey’s wetlands has the unique ability to sever the carbon-fluorine bond in PFAS, a class of long-lived chemicals that disrupt hormones and increase cancer risk. Scientists suspect this microbe could help clean up contaminated environments.

My teacher is allergic to chlorine. Would he also have a bad reaction to fluorine, bromine and other elements of that group?
Since elements of the same group have similar properties, right? I'm taking chemistry for fun and trying not to overwhelm my instructor with too many silly questions.
EDIT: My teacher may have meant sensitivity and not allergy. English isn't his first language.

Dental flossing and other behaviors linked with higher levels of PFAS in the body, finds a new study. Women who flossed with Oral-B Glide tended to have higher levels of PFAS, and Glide products tested positive for fluorine. Higher PFAS levels are also linked to stain-resistant carpet or furniture.

Nanobots Coated with a layer of fluorine
I’m writing a paper for school about nanobots and a new application of the technology. My idea is that I coat these nanobots with fluorine or a similar chemical that has a high affinity for calcium. I can’t find any other chemicals or compounds that have a high affinity for calcium or calcium oxalate. I also understand that fluorine gas is toxic but what about fluorine in a solid state?
KSI, are you made of fluorine and astatine because you are looking kind of

In "Ignition", John Clark cites that James Dewar falsely stated liquid fluorine to have a density of 1.108, when the real value is 1.5. Is there more information on this error?
Does anyone know where the number originally was published by Dewar? Or anywhere in the literature where people used that number and had bad results? The book says it went 60 years unquestioned - how did that end? Who corrected the value? What caused them to correct it? What methods would have been used at the time to find the density, and why would Dewar get it wrong and someone else get it right?

How many and how do I find the # of electrons in Fluorine-18?
Have you ever heard the story of Fluorine the wise? It's ionic, he could transfer electrons to others but not himself.
Why is the fusion temperatura of Bromine higher than that of Chlorine and Fluorine?
Do you guys think that it would be possible to have life that utilizes fluorine instead of oxygen?
Maybe a special planet that’s very cold or in a really non reactive atmosphere.
Is it possible to use fluorine instead of chlorine in swimming pools?
EDIT: for clarification, I’m not planning on attempting this, nor could I with what I know and have. Just a random question that popped into my head this evening.

Antozonite, Variety of Fluorite that has small pockets of Elemental Fluorine
Jellyfish inspired electronic skin is transparent, stretchable, touch-sensitive, and self-healing in aquatic environments. It's a gel consisting of a fluorocarbon-based polymer and a fluorine-rich ionic liquid that when combined via highly reversible ion–dipole interactions, allows it to self-heal.
