Yes, all three of my Debian servers are running Debian 8.5 as per the 
/etc/debian_version files.

Yes, here are the results from one of my servers and which are 
essentially the same as yours:

|$ mount|grep "run "
|tmpfs on /run type tmpfs (rw,nosuid,relatime,size=1632120k,mode=755)
|
|ls -l /var/ | grep "run "
|lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root     4 Jun 11  2013 run -> /run

Yes, I have both of these service files and I previously posted  the 
"systemctl status" results for both services in my initial bug report.

Exactly!  The socket is not being started on either of my three debian 
machines.  Here is the contents of my clamav-daemon.socket file:

|cat /lib/systemd/system/clamav-daemon.socket
|[Unit]
|Description=Socket for Clam AntiVirus userspace daemon
|Documentation=man:clamd(8) man:clamd.conf(5) 
http://www.clamav.net/lang/en/doc/
|# Check for database existence
|ConditionPathExistsGlob=/var/lib/clamav/main.{c[vl]d,inc}
|ConditionPathExistsGlob=/var/lib/clamav/daily.{c[vl]d,inc}
|
|[Socket]
|ListenStream=/run/clamav/clamd.ctl
|#ListenStream=127.0.0.1:1024
|SocketUser=clamav
|SocketGroup=clamav
|RemoveOnStop=True

Please advise........
