1. If it is used in nuclear weapons.
2. If it is ingested, because uranium is toxic.
3. If it is inhaled because alpha radiations from uranium, radium and radon destroy pulmonary alveoli.
4. In the case of an accident of criticality.
5. After a contact with irradiated uranium, because all the radiations emitted by the fission products are dangerous.
yes
- after a severe intoxication (ingestion of an important mass of soluble uranium compounds); uranium is toxic and radioactive. - after inhalation of uranium dust on long periods; uranium and the released radon are the cause of lung cancers in this case. - after the explosion of a critical mass of enriched uranium - if you are between the victims of a nuclear weapons bombarment, using uranium in the bombs
Uranium is radioactive, and contamination of water, air or the human system can be fatal or permanently mutate a person or living animal's body, therefore, it is advised not to use uranium and instead use some safer resource.
From about 150 years.
Nope Uranium is a very widespread element in nature. All materials of construction, all foods, all waters and soils, etc. contain small amounts of uranium. Uranium concentration in bananas is so small that it is not of practical importance. Even human body contain a small quantity of uranium.

Uranium is a very expensive and desired material; having uranium is equivalent with to be rich.

Uranium hasn't a biological role.
Mercury. Could kill someone easily. Uranium radioactive and can kill Francuim radioactive and can kill. And also blows up like a bomb.
Uranium is toxic and radioactive; also uranium is pyrophoric in powdered form or in high speed projectiles on impact.
People use the chemical uranium to help power electricity and power plants.
Uranium is toxic and radioactive for all the people, not specially for pregnant women.
Nobody throws Uranium out. Some people throw their wives or husbands out. Some people let their exclusive golf-club memberships lapse. The nasty by-products of uranium fission, when they are no longer useful, get sent to a giant pool in Idaho. They don't throw the Uranium out either.
People in Niger farm, or mine uranium.
