Andrew R. Lloyd, MB BS Syd, MD UNSW, FRACP, is an infectious disease physician, and an epidemiology, virology and immunology researcher. He is a professor at the School of Medical Sciences, University of New South Wales, Sydney, Australia.[1]

He is one of the authors of the 2002 Australian chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) guidelines, which were immediately criticized by ME/CFS Australia[2] who stated the guidelines:

  • do not describe accurately and fully the symptoms and characteristics of the illness;
  • misrepresent the illness and people with CFS;
  • do not provide an accurate, balanced and objective consideration of the research evidence;
  • demonstrate a consistent bias towards a psychiatric-psychological approach to the illness;
  • dismiss, downplay or ignore biological evidence;
  • make illness management suggestions that are potentially harmful for many with CFS; and
  • do not mention other ways of effectively managing the illness.[3]

In a following letter to the Medical Journal of Australia, ME/CFS Australia stated:

"Following an extensive review of the literature, it is considered that the evidence is not good enough for the Guidelines to be called ‘evidence-based,’ the assessment and presentation of the evidence has not been objective, the Working Group was not truly representative and so the end product is unreliable. The document provides potentially harmfulmanagement suggestions with insufficient supporting evidence."[4]

More than 700 people signed a petition[5] asking him to stop the roll out of training medical professionals to use CBT and GET on people diagnosed with chronic fatigue syndrome. The university responded, stating the people who are protesting harbour ‘resentment against the notion that CFS may have psychological causes’[6], while there is no evidence for their argument.

Lloyd is on the Australian government's ME and CFS advisory committee[7].

Lloyd described the PACE trial has having "reasonably solid data".[8]
