Ailment, disease (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

illness

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'ailment' is the first definition.
(I know that illness is a type of ailment)

'disease' is the second definition.
(I know that illness is a type of disease)

(Other definitions for illness that I've seen before include "suffering this" , "Sick condition" , "Ailment, disease" , "Period of sickness" , "Indisposition, sickness" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times and the Irish Times (Simplex).
