Speaking of eyes I wonder if you can "inhale" it into your eyes too.

Viruses can enter the body more than just orally and even though we think it's primarily through the respiratory system, we aren't sure yet.

Even having expressed doubt, something is better than nothing. And if it eliminates requiring face masks it would be worth it alone for that.

I’m guessing any mucous membrane (eyes, mouth, nasal passages and I swear some other posts here said anus) is a risk but apparently lung cells are the most vulnerable
