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.

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.

Also on the podcast, Kingston talks about how the rising diesel market is starting to come full circle and is approaching pre-pandemic levels.
