I set up CentOS 7.x environment with following conditions.

* CentOS 7.5.1804
* ClamAV 0.100.2 from EPEL(Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux by
  Fedora Project)

Next I made following changes.

1. Add following line in /etc/rsyslog.conf
    *.*;auth,authpriv.none    -/var/log/syslog
2. Set LogSyslog to false in both /etc/freshclam.conf and /etc/clamd.d/scan.conf

And finally I rebooted system. Then result is that clamd didn't write
any message to syslog and executing freshclam didin't either. To make
sure I set LogSyslog to true and reboot again. And this time both
clamd and freshclam wrote message to syslog.

So now syslog issue is proved to be Debian specific. I don't know
where the source of this issue lies. But anyway I'll send bug report
to maintainer of Debian ClamAV package.
