Software install and ClamAV

Hi, new to the whole linux experience, and it seems that Bazzite does things differently than other distros. I cannot for the life of me figure out how to install ClamAV. I know Bazzite uses the "flatpak" app install, but it doesn't have everything I'm looking for. I got ClamTK from Bazaar, but it doesn't seem to be doing anything. I scoured many threads and videos and general google searches. I tries the "sudo yum install clamav" and "clamd", but both ended in error because the boot is "read only!" What am I doing? How do I do this? I think I just need someone to walk me through the absolute basics because I cannot find any answers through my web searching techniques (if you can call them that). Even the documentation/FAQ page on the Bazzite website is too murky for my little brain, and i cannot grasp the language. I'm a little frustrated and need help understanding all this crazy stuff.
