The Official Site of the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders

While this global health pandemic has created a world of uncertainty, the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders commitment to NEPA has never been stronger. Our corporate and charitable partners in this region have made significant strides through increased safety measures, adjusted store and product availability, health education and resources for in-home work and activities.

Below is a list of ways in which our partners are helping us get through this challenge together and partners who need our help.

Stay safe NEPA.

From our partners at Geisinger Health System, here are a few things you can do to stay safe and help prevent the spread of COVID-19:

  • Practice physical distancing (social distancing). Don't shake hands, avoid crowds and stay at least 6 feet away from others. 
  • Wash your hands - often. And for at least 20 seconds. Alcohol-based sanitizers and wipes with at least 60% alcohol are good, too.
  • Avoid touching your face. Especially your mouth, nose and eyes. Also, cover your mouth and nose when coughing and sneezing to stop the spread of viruses, like COVID-19, that are spread through droplets.
  • Keep surfaces clean and disinfected at your home, school and workplace.
  • If you are sick, stay home, rest and drink lots of fluids.
  • Wear a homemade cloth or fabric mask if you must leave your home.

If you are experiencing symptoms of fever, cough or shortness of breath, the best thing to do is contact your doctor.

As concerns continue to rise about the strain of coronavirus that causes COVID-19, we ask that if you're feeling like you may have symptoms or are not feeling well, to call your primary care provider or our 24/7 hotline 570-284-3657 BEFORE going to the doctor's office, ER or urgent care. This will help limit exposure to other community members as well as our team members.
 


PNC understands the significant impact that the coronavirus pandemic is having on many of our consumer, small business and corporate and institutional bank customers. We continue to work with those impacted, providing a variety of solutions that make the most sense for meeting their particular needs.

In addition to these solutions, we recently have supported consumers and businesses with billions of dollars of incremental loans. The newly enacted federal Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act provides a variety of additional emergency relief programs for businesses (including the Paycheck Protection Program) and consumers. We are actively working to operationalize these programs as quickly as possible so that we can further assist our customers in maximizing their relief under the Act's provisions.

As we navigate these uncertain times together, the safety and well-being of our customers, employees and the communities we serve remains our top priority. We will continue to update this site on the steps PNC is taking to do just that.

Major League Baseball is teaming up with a sports apparel retailer to help with a national shortage of personal protective equipment for health care workers. MLB and Fanatics are shifting production from jerseys to masks and gowns for those on the front lines of the fight against coronavirus.

The shortage is causing health care workers to resort to desperate measures and save supplies intended for a single usage. Jersey fabric will be used to make masks and hospital gowns in Fanatics' manufacturing plant in Easton, Pennsylvania. MLB and Fanatics will pay for associated costs.
