The immune system can trap pathogens by engulfing them or creating barriers to prevent their entry into tissues. In the case of viruses, they can be trapped by antibodies that bind to them and prevent them from infecting host cells. Additionally, physical barriers like mucus can trap pathogens before they reach vulnerable tissues.
