"Takes 4 minutes of hand sanitizer to remove viruses."
No it doesn't. The study you refer to was one specific virus (influenza-A) that simulated essentially coughing directly onto your hands. Where the virus was encased in large volume of mucus.
That isn't how people use sanitizer. It's for dry contact displacement, and there it is incredibly effective. You should still wash your hands when you can, of course, but these misleading claims aren't helping anything.
