The scene where Freddie Mercury tells the other members of Queen that he is HIV-positive right before Live Aid is 100% fiction. It is also unclear when Freddie first learned he had the virus. Reports have varied from Freddie finding out in 1987 to him knowing much earlier than that after seeking medical attention in Germany. So the time it took for his disease to escalate to full-blown AIDS and end his life is unclear. The movie ends with the public not knowing about his condition, which is accurate, since Freddie didn't publicize his illness until 23 November 1991, the day before he died.
