Dealing with coronavirus every day at work

Take two people. An emergency room nurse dealing with coronavirus every day at work, and a Wall Street executive (who has not been around anyone who is sick). Using the availability bias, why might the nurse overestimate the likelihood of an average person getting the virus while the Wall Street executive might underestimate the likelihood of the average person getting the virus? What does this say about our ability to forecast?
