Most of the liquid is removed from the meat in the drying process. Liquid is a common catalyst and friendly environment for various bacteria. When water (or other evaporatable liquids) remain in animal tissue after it is dead, the bacteria thrive and begin to eat away at the tissues of the meat. When you remove the liquids (dry the meat), the "environment" is much LESS friendly for bacteria and other bad things. Drying is a common form of "preservation" of food. In times of old before refrigeration, meat from slaughtered animals was either cooked and eaten very quickly, or it was dried in order to be stored and eaten later.
Spoiled meat (meat that has become rotten, inedible and filled with bacteria and its waste) is a dangerous thing to consume - not to mention very unpleasant smelling and tasting. That did not (and still does not) always stop the poor and homeless from eating spoiled meats thrown out by their more fortunate peers. Spoiled meat is a transport for an entire host of sickness and disease, but hungry people are and were desperate for something to eat that they would ignore their good senses.
Dried meat will eventually spoil, but if it is sealed in a package or frozen, it can last almost indefinitely. When you take the added "friendly environments" of "air" and "warmth" from the meat after you take away the liquid (water), the meat lasts even longer, almost indefinitely. The only thing you need to worry about dried meat is that is loses its flavor over time and becomes bland and unpleasant tasting.
