This is not required.  There was only 1 fix in 5.0 Update 1B and if you already successfully upgraded to 1A, you're wasting your time.

Wait until 5.1 comes out...

If you have a distributed vSwitch then yes, you definitely should upgrade from 5.0 Update 1 to either 1a or 1b.  If you don't have vDS and aren't experiencing any problems, then I don't think you need to update given that 5.1 will be available in a few weeks.  I haven't read the release notes for 5.1 Update 1a very recently so you may want to do that to see if there are other fixes relevant to your environment.
