>Technically no the vaccine doesn’t target anything
Is this some weird pedantism about that it's the antibodies that does the targeting?

Reply to Eli5: how does stomach acid not exit with feces when we have diarrhoea? Isn't it just a sphincter which should in theory not be infallible? by Thtanilaw1113
Your stomach acid is neutralized, by the pancrease releasing bicarbonate, when it enters the small intestine. Your intestines are not a straight line from your stomach to your anal sphincter, so there is plenty of mixing going on.

Reply to comment by Doobledorf in The Black Death may not have been spread by rats after all by Rear-gunner
If you read the paper it's questioning the reservoirs of the disease, not if it's rat or fleas.
Transmitting via fleas still requires the rats to move them, so to speak.

Reply to comment by MercurioLeCher in Is there any difference in efficacy when a vaccine is administered somewhere other than the upper arm (e.g. on the foot)? by MercurioLeCher
Would be super inconvenient if you get swelling and/pain.
Efficacy is impossible to know if not tested.

It's really motivating when you start your motivational speech describing how low effort it is.

Take a chunk of skin in your mouth and see how hard you actually have to bite to make it hurt, let alone draw blood. Takes quite a bit of force before you get through the entire skin.
If you really want to test, try to bite through a chicken wing bone, and see how much force that takes. And a chicken bone is less dense.

How does this still come up? It's so far from the truth. If your finger bones were only as strong as a carrot you would break them every time you bumped into something, and small children would chew their fingers off.

Everyone in the world knows what someone mean when they that a vaccine targets something.
You didn't even correct, you just said "technically the vaccine doesn't target anything".
