Infinite Particular Point Space is not Countably Paracompact

Theorem

Let $T = \struct {S, \tau_p}$ be an infinite particular point space.

Then $T$ is not countably paracompact.

Proof

Aiming for a contradiction, suppose $T$ is countably paracompact.

From Countably Paracompact Space is Countably Metacompact it follows that $T$ is countably metacompact.

But we have that Infinite Particular Point Space is not Countably Metacompact.

Hence the result by Proof by Contradiction.
