Does it happen in gamemodes other than Co-op/Survival/Invasion? Normally, spectators are supposed to be able to see players' health in those gamemodes.

I don't think the HUD is at fault here. WDI is abusing survival here and this is a consequence of it and should be using LMS instead. Further, exactly what advantage is gained here anyway? I don't think in normal WDI servers you can just coop spy the murderer anyway.

I'd say this should just be closed.
