I put the meat in the freezer compartment of the refrigerator. Will it be free of bacteria after freezing into ice cubes?

    In the freezer, the temperature is below -18 degrees (three stars) or -12 degrees (two stars), the food is in a hard frozen state, but there are still some bacteria that can survive stubbornly, such as can cause severe diarrhea and dehydration The halophilic bacteria can survive in protein at minus 20 degrees Celsius for 11 weeks. Once the temperature rises to normal temperature, they can still be rejuvenated, grow and reproduce
