Q: Do I need antivirus?

No, none is necessary - there are no known viruses for OS X out there...

You may want to read Thomas Reed's Mac Malware Guide - it's a good introduction to the malware that has been out in the past and keeps up with any new malware.

Good luck,

Clinton

Not needed.  But if you are very concerned, try the free ClamXav app.

Should i use antivirus on my mbp ...

No.

In General 3rd Party AV Software is Not Required as Mac OS X tends to look after itself.
