Kaspersky, BTW, has the best scores (See here: https://bestantivirus.reviews/tools/test-results-calculator) but Bitdefender and Avira are also great according to these tests, and Bitdefender is my choice, personally.
It's sort of like Cloudflare protecting against DDoS attacks while also protecting booters.
These are not our tests, these are tests performed by av-test, virusbulletin, etc.
Currently there are only a few tests for ClamAV, all done by AV-Test during 2015-2016 and all are for MacOS.
When ClamAV goes through a few more tests, it will be included in our results tool as well. (Here: https://bestantivirus.reviews/tools/test-results-calculator)
If you're interested in the ClamAV test results for MacOS, here are the original tests performed by AV-Test:

https://www.av-test.org/en/news/news-single-view/more-securi...
https://www.av-test.org/en/news/news-single-view/12-security...
The average scores based on these tests are:
Average: 87.9%
>Protection: 72.6%
>Performance Impact: 92.8%
>False Alerts: 98.3%
But once again, these are for MacOS, not for Linux users among whom it's extremely popular.
