So what about the number of correctly reloaded signatures ? I notice 
you have about 10 million, someone else reported 8 million signatures 
as of Sept 6, I currently read from my clamd logfile :

Sat Sep  7 10:54:10 2019 -> SelfCheck: Database status OK.
Sat Sep  7 11:04:13 2019 -> SelfCheck: Database status OK.
Sat Sep  7 11:08:59 2019 -> Reading databases from /var/lib/clamav
Sat Sep  7 11:11:07 2019 -> Database correctly reloaded (6309062 signatures)
Sat Sep  7 11:21:07 2019 -> SelfCheck: Database status OK.
Sat Sep  7 11:31:08 2019 -> SelfCheck: Database status OK.
