you don't get an error, an error is when the service don't start

"If I delete the /var/run/clamav directory, I don’t get the error, but
if I restart clamd again I get the error again. I’m not sure what the
problem is" - idiot there is no problem

"ExecStartPre=-/bin/mkdir /run/clamav" is prefixed with - so that the
service don't fail in case the directory exists and "mkdir" natuarlly
fails when a directory already exists

when you delete the directory - guess what - it get created and no
warning - frankly this is not a clamav topic at all but lack of basic
understanding of your system
