Pushing truck drivers toward the front of the vaccination line

<p>Michael Lemke is a former driver who now studies trucking and in particular driver's health from his position as a faculty member at a Houston university.</p><p>In a recently-published paper, Lemke makes the case that truck drivers should be much further up the line to receive a COVID-19 vaccination. He joins Drilling Deep host John Kingston this week to lay out his case why he thinks drivers need to be a much higher priority to get a needle in their arm.</p><p>Also on the podcast, Kingston talks about how the rising diesel market is starting to come full circle and is approaching pre-pandemic levels.</p><p><a href="https://www.freightwaves.com/podcasts">More FreightWaves podcasts</a></p><p><a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/drilling-deep-with-john-kingston/id1490133519">Apple Podcasts</a></p><p><a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/5EYGxvSTrMfXmrEtDg1MAF?si=Glmfpb3RTIS93ThRYjqS0A">Spotify</a></p>
