For indicators Ia​ with means pa​, let Ba​ contain a and suppose Ia​ is independent of the entire family outside Ba​. Put μ=∑a​pa​, b1​=∑a​∑b∈Ba​​pa​pb​ and b2​=∑a​∑b∈Ba​∖{a}​E(Ia​Ib​). The Poisson Stein equation and its bound ∥Δf∥∞​≤1 give the displayed total variation distance estimate. Stronger Stein factors can improve the bound when μ is large.
