We present a method to obtain both exact values and sharp estimates for the total variation distance between binomial and Poisson distributions with the same mean λ. We give a simple efficient ...

The data considered in this study are oocyst genotypes. Starting from an oocyst (diploid stage), the events of the life cycle that are important here are meiosis, human infection by sporozoites, ...
