Maybe/not: Upper respiratory viruses including a cold can be passed in both contact to the germ on surfaces & airborne droplets. Hand washing is a bit more successful in removing germs than sanitizers but they can cut down exposure risk. Some cultures routinely ware mouth/nose covering asks to reduce airborne virus risk when in public. I doubt this will catch on here.
