Alternative answers to just say fuck you to the health system is to have Diana get Themyscira to open a Purple ray Hospital on a peninsula or something. Then hold the senators and powermongers hungering for Life Beams over the trade barrel. Hijinks over politics ensue. Yay for Chaos!

It's a Themysciran Senator who's unrolling the red tape.
So... How's that going to work?

I am guessing we're going to find out what happened to the nazis who evac'd from the watchtower.

No, the ray is purple. It was just invented by a female nazi mad scientist who was granted asylum on Themyscira.
... COMICS, EVERYONE! Where "The luddite magical greek amazon women have a purple laser beam that fixes you because of a Nazi that hung out with them for a while," makes PERFECT SENSE.

What? So nazis can't be purple then? Racist.

Ok, yeah, on second thought, nazis. Purple would hardly fit their whole Aryan Ideal thing.

Are they not allowed to mass produce it because of the military equipment law or because of something else? If it's the former, making it into a shape that isn't in any way military oriented should solve the issue. Like make into something the size and shape of an NMRI machine would convince even the Amazons that you couldn't bring it into a fight, even if most of the casing is empty.
Also, did you get any episode ideas from those recommendations about a week ago? If so, what would that bring the number of episodes you have a planned plot for to?

Ooh, I have an idea for the purple healing ray that could affect places where it isn't allowed: get the biggest guy you can with O- blood (or girl, but men are usually larger and have more blood per mass), hook them up to a blood donating rig thing, then continuously shoot them with the purple healing ray and give them tons of meat and other food to eat. With the vastly increased vitality, they could produce blood as fast as it's taken away (which again could be sped up compared to normal) so long as they have sufficient food. Maybe not super useful in normal circumstances, but after natural disasters the blood transfusions could be useful.

Wait... What?!?
Oh, so those dude's that teamed up with Klarion are gonna be more than a one off?
Neat.

I'd like to point out that as discussed before the Purple Healing Ray isn't a cure all. It's basically physical trauma only.
Isolationism: not just for Kryptonians.
I've already established that Prince Khufu existed, as did Chay-ara. There was a Silver Scarab and a Fury. This Hawkman is Thanagarian, and his giant wings make it impossible for him to have a secret identity.

Didn't really work out to hot for them, anyhow. Figuratively speaking, of course.
What? Not even with a tiny mask?!?

Or pairs of glasses. Apparently that makes it so people won't look too closely at what's underneath them.
He could hide his wings with a shirt a few sizes too big and an exaggerated hunch. Wait... Hawkman is Clark Kent!

Slightly longer version- Originally Wonder Woman's daughter by Steve Trevor, she married Hawkman and girl's son.
Then retconned to not even an amazon, but a second generation avatar of Tisphone, as in one of the Furies of Greek myth.
After her husband's death, two dream spirits or whatever you want to call them tricked him into thinking he was the guardian of dreams, so he became one of the superheroes known as the Sandman back when Morpheus was indisposed.
Once freed, Morpheus tried to send her husband's ghost to rest, but that doesn't stick because he later came back as Dr Fate (his third superhero identity).
Then Morpheus told Lyta that her son's name is Daniel and that he is his heir, which of course raised huge stranger danger red flags, because why wouldn't it?
Being an avatar of bloody bloody vengeance, she unleashed her spiritual patrons on the guy who from her perspective killed her husband and was in the process of being a super creepy stalker of her infant son.
In current continuity, she's a new god/amazon hybrid who was trained by Big Barda.
But Zoat is probably going to draw from the middle version, her being Wonder Woman's secret daughter would be a bit soap opera, and the aspects of Prime Earth continuity he uses are few and far between.
Hawkman to Hawkwoman: "I think it's some kind of weird Earth-culture taboo. Or maybe a psychological disorder. They see someone with a mask and they pretend not to recognize him, no matter how obvious. Watch this!"
<puts on a tiny mask and walks into a pizza place>
Hawkman (in a falsetto): "Hello there. My name is Jane Smith, and I'd like a large pepperoni to go, please."
Counter person (cheerily oblivious): "It'll be ready in about twenty minutes Ms Smith."

Has he tried changing his posture? Maybe brushing his hair differently?
The uplift continues!
…shame about all the red tape.
Why would that matter? A tool is not diminished just because the inventor was a racist jackass.

Because, basically, the Nazi regime managed to give most of the developed world (and some of the undeveloped) culture-level PTSD. Nobody wants to imagine anything good coming out of that shit-show, particularly since in realityland slim to none did, the cultures that think some /did/ tend to go very, very sideways indeed, and...well.
Imagine for a moment you've broken one or more limbs in some horrible accident, but the EMTs inform you that hey, it's going to be all right because purple healing ray!
They point it at you, and as you stare into the soothing glow of the barrel, just before it fires and envelopes your body in mysterious science rays first discovered and manipulated by a pack of psychotic, jackbooted, genocidal politicians while torture sciencing* entire demographics, ask yourself: What is this thing going to do to me, really?
Deep down, and in the long run?
Some people might find this contemplation a little disquieting.
