I highly doubt this would work at the first place! Here's the reasons for the health hack to not work.
1) Lag / Desync is a big factor at SA-MP, you will face false positives.
2) There are cheats that can set back the health to its old value showing as they got hit but as soon as they are hit, it is restored (as the "shot" package is sent to the server)
3) OnPlayerWeaponShot callback can be spoofed and can be avoided to be called.
4) This will clearly give false positives for idle players. If I'm right, onplayerweaponshot is called when a player is AFK aswell, however their health will decrease when they are back from idling.
5) If not idle, the players who are not sending enough packets to the server (for example the same second they died) if the script checks a bit late, which is likely to happen because you have a delayer over there. The player is shot, the delayer fires off, the same second the player dies, then your delayer eventually checks what's the player's health after they died, usually when the player is dead the server can give false information about the player's health, that would send false positives aswell.
6) Most of these will be caused from desync, it will declare desynced players as health hacking. Don't forget the SA-MP server is not multi-threaded so is the client, it can not process all the data at once.
7) As above, it will really change the results you give on a full server, because there's the server's networking systems and packetloss, delays on the client's screen, delays from the server itself, server lag, code constantly running at the background, if the server hangs up even for 200ms the results would be noticeable on your detector and will cause for it to give false positives, not one or two, but many because the server players overall will feel this.
8 ) Sorry but some cute test you do on localhost will not prove anything, your ping on localhost is 1 and you never have packetloss, some bot you spawn in the game to shoot at will clearly be on the same network as you are so there would be absolutely no false positives ofcourse because you are already connected to the server pretty fine.
