Some unpopular opinions about certain type of vaccine (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

oral

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'type of vaccine' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'some unpopular opinions about' is the wordplay.
'some' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue (some parts of the word are used).
'about' is a reversal indicator.
'laro' can be found hidden inside 'unpopular opinions'.
'laro' in reverse letter order is 'ORAL'.

'certain' acts as a link.
I am not very happy about this link. It may belong to another bit of the clue.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for oral that I've seen before include "Spoken rather than written" , "Spoken test" , "Concerning the mouth" , "Type of exam" , "Relating to speech" .)
