Which pathogen?: Since you didn't specify I will answer broadly and hope this helps. Pathogens can transmit to hosts directly through the air like the flu , through blood / mucous membranes like HIV or through a vector like mosquitos. or even objects like door knobs with the common cold just to name a few. The immune response is complex and varies like branches of the military. More details if requested.
