Asbestos is dangerous not because it's asbestos, but because it makes small and sharp fibres that embed in the lung tissue.
Carbon Fiber (and even fibreglass) can make fibres that small and sharp. So yeah, responsible dust handling is key.
The good news is that Asbestos easily puts off those small fibres just by being handled. CF and FG need to be damaged or machined to do it, handling the material after the dust has been dealt with is fine.
Also there was a video about touching the edges of carbon fiber where it is not surface treated is embedding countless small shards of carbon into your skin, only visible through magnification, which cannot be healthy..
