Illustration of a macrophage white blood cell (beige) engulfing coronavirus particles (orange). This process is called phagocytosis. Macrophages are cells of the body's immune system. They phagocytose (engulf) and destroy pathogens, dead cells and cellular debris. The coronavirus particles have been tagged by antibodies (white) to signal to the macrophages to destroy them.
