Byron Hyde is a Canadian doctor whose opinions on Chronic Fatigue Syndrome have stirred controversy.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7] Proponents of the meme that routine vaccinations can trigger auto-immune disorders have cited Hyde as an authority.

Hyde started practicing medicine in 1966.[7]

In 1984 Osler's daughter was one of the first people for him to recognize had Chronic Fatigue Syndrome.[4][7] Diagnosing her problems led him to consult with Charles Poser, a neurologist then at Harvard Medical School.

In 1974 Hyde put his name forward to the Liberal Party of Canada's riding association for the Ottawa West Riding.[8] Lloyd Francis, the last Liberal MP for that riding, described his anger over Hyde competing with him. He described Hyde as an outsider, with no prior political experience, and claimed that senior members of the Party had hired campaign workers for Hyde, to make up for him not knowing any local people who would volunteer to work to help him compete for the candidacy. The riding chose Francis as their candidate, and he was re-elected.

In 1988 Hyde is said to have sought out survivors from a localized outbreak of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, that occurred in Los Angeles, in 1934-35.[3][4] Proponents of the meme that routine vaccinations trigger auto-immune disorders assert that the administration of a new anti-polio vaccine at a medical conference, in Los Angeles had triggered side effects similar to Chronic Fatigue Syndrome.

Western Australia Today called Hyde a "world renowned expert", when they described him being snubbed by local doctors, in Perth, Australia, when he visited ther in 2010.[2] Individuals in an association of those who thought they ha CFS had invited Hyde to give a workshop to local doctors, but only six attende.

In 2019 the Ontario College of Physicians and Surgeons assigned investigators to examine the medical records Hyde kept.[9] Following the investigation Hyde agreed to a statement of facts that showed he neglected to properly maintain patient records, prescribed addictive drugs, without proper monitory. He agreed to a suspension of his right to practice medicine.
