    It probably won't kill you but neither will it kill any microbes you've likely already breathed into your lungs.

    That is not safe at all, and in fact will damage your nose mucosa and make viral entry easier. And the vapors, other than maybe give you a headache, wont do anything

    Don't stick hand sanitizer up your nose. The membranes are too sensitive for that. You shouldn't be sniffing it either.
