That's because it's not common sense to compare sanitizer-induced cancer rates to overall COVID rates. To determine whether the use of hand sanitizer is a net positive, you have to compare the deaths caused by hand sanitizer to the deaths prevented by hand sanitizer. Unfortunately, it would be pretty difficult to get accurate numbers for either of those figures, even if you just narrow it down to cancer and COVID.

If old people are at great risk you can not tell whole population for to do something risking cancers to protecting them. I am young enough and at very very low risk of deaths from corona so am not desiring for to use sanitizer and for to maybe getting benzene cancers.
