Hypersensitivity (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

allergy

'hypersensitivity' is the definition.
(allergy is a kind of hypersensitivity)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for allergy that I've seen before include "Abnormal body reaction" , "Pathological aversion" , "Unfavourable reaction to, say, pollen" , "Abnormal reaction as to, say, pollen" , "Unfavourable reaction as to pollens or foods" .)

I've seen this clue in the LA Times and The Times.
