Try this, it appears to work. Note the double quotes around CMD in the 
ssh command:

#!/bin/sh

CMD="if [ -e /var/lib/clamav/daily.cvd ]; then
     ls -al /var/lib/clamav/daily.cvd
else
     echo
fi"

me=`hostname`

set -x
for host in `cat ~/.hosts`; do
    echo -n "$host       ";
    if [ $host = $me ]; then
         $CMD
    else
        ssh $host "$CMD"
    fi
done
