Hi Anon,

Thank you for sharing your question with the EmpowHER community.

Even if you have a natural immunity, I would think the added precautionary measure would server as extra protection. So although it may not be deemed necessary, it might be a good idea.

I hope this helps.

Be well,
~Gillette
