YES! Even with the plastic shield tube, don't go swingin' this thing around willy-nilly. They're filled with mercury gas which, if inhaled in quantity, can be poisonous, not to mention the near-microscopic glass shards that ain't all that comfy either.
Use care as you would changing or disposing of any flourescent light.
