This isn't for sickly individuals - it's for street marketing in the big shopping districts. Instead of handing out the preverbial "you throw this away for me" flyer we're familar with in the states, shops advertize by people handing out tissue packs near thir business with a small flyer on top -usually with a map to where they are at, since the roads are like a big plate of noodles over there. The tissues are useful, so people are much less inclined to chuck them, and see the message later on as well when they open them. My frineds visit the shopping districts, and come back with 5 or 10 different advertising tissues a trip. I imagine hiring a robot to pass them out (5 day rental - a work week?) gets some wow factor, as well as making sure the person you hired to hand them out didn't dump them in a drain and walk off.
