Uranium in its natural state can be handled safely without any protective gear. Enriched Uranium (i.e. reactor grade) only requires gloves and a lab coat. Enriched Uranium does not occur naturally, it's an artificial state of Uranium created by enriching the U-235 content. If you keep enriching it you can eventually produce weapons-grade Uranium, at which point it is highly hazardous.
On the other hand there are substances that are hazardous to humans without needing to be artificially created - lead, mercury, asbestos, etc.
