Sorry I mistyped it. It is Weil's disease.

from google
Hoar frost might form as liquid dew that has subsequently frozen with a drop in temperature, which is then known as silver frost or white frost.

Thank you all for your help

I cant see how Weils disease relates to water

[Pigletion]

only in that it is often caught from water that rats have been using as a urinal...

[grasscarp]

Granny, Leptospirosis is known by many other names including Weir's disease, Canicola fever, Hemorrhagic jaundice, Mud fever, and Swineherd disease.
So Weir's disease then since Weir relates to water. (or maybe Mud fever but Weir is better)

[emeritus]

Taken from ROSPA

It can be caught by humans through contact with rat or cattle urine, most commonly occurring through contaminated fresh water
