Are you sure that you have the right product and/or mailing list?

# grep sigs /var/log/clamav/freshclam.log | tail -n 3
Tue Mar 23 01:39:15 2021 -> daily.cld database is up to date (version: 26117, sigs: 3964846, f-level: 63, builder: raynman)
Tue Mar 23 01:39:16 2021 -> main.cvd database is up to date (version: 59, sigs: 4564902, f-level: 60, builder: sigmgr)
Tue Mar 23 01:39:16 2021 -> bytecode.cld database is up to date (version: 333, sigs: 92, f-level: 63, builder: awillia2)

As you can see there are more than eight million signatures ('sigs')
in the current ClamAV databases.
