MAKERS of the Fouch on the Couch throw pillow are not sitting still on the marketing front during the holiday season.
The item is a tribute to Dr Anthony Fauci, the White House adviser and the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases.
What is Fouch on the Couch?
Fouch on the Couch is a throw pillow available online that honors Dr Fauci.
“Move over, Elf on the Shelf and Mensch on the Bench! Introducing Fouch on the Couch,” the item’s website reads.
It is available for $40.
“During these uncertain times, there’s only one piece of home decor that will remind you to hang in there inside your quarantine oasis, featuring the most calming figurehead during this pandemic, Dr. Anthony S. Fauci,” reads the online description.
“Feeling down? Let the smiling face of one of the most trusted medical figures in the country remind you that we will get through this together – all from the comfort of your living room.

The item has a hidden zipper, a machine-washable case, and is made with a “fabric with a linen feel.”
What is Elf on the Shelf?
ELF on the Shelf is a classic holiday tradition for young kids all around the world.
Families can buy an Elf on the Shelf and “adopt” it all throughout the holiday season to watch over their children.
Because Elf on the Shelf is based on a book, many also choose to read the story of the elf to prepare for its arrival.
The popular elf normally stays until a few days after Christmas, until having to “return” to the North Pole to prepare for the following year’s festivities.
The elves report back to Santa and decide if the children have been naughty or nice.
Every November 24 through December 1, it is officially Scout Elf Return Week, according to the official website.
The elves gear up from the North Pole to go all over the world into their adoptive family home and stay all through the holidays.
