iPhone's infrared projection system used for Face ID would normally not be fooled into opening based on a picture like that (Samsung uses the camera only and has been successfully spoofed using pictures and siblings; supposedly that's improving) , but if you train your iPhone to work on such a mask, then obviously half the face is identical no matter who wears the mask. It would be interesting to know if the current iPhone would accept or reject this half-face on another person.
If you're concerned about contamination using passcode unlock, you can bag your phone in a ziplock bag and it will still accept touch inputs for passcode etc. iPhones can also be disinfected with hand sanitizer wipes or Clorox wipes:

Good Morning,
Do you know of a way to use the alternate Face ID on the Iphone to accommodate a face with a N-95 mask on.
Thank you,
Dr. Craig Leivent
