The risk of infection is always present when bitten by various animals. Mice no exception. Some mice carry diseases but absolutely most diseases carried by mice are not transferable to humans.

Mice are actually very clean animals. They spend a lot of time taking care of them selves. Always cleaning and grooming themselves and each other.

I would say No, but this could depend on where you live.

Some places do have a population of mice that are carrier of diseases harmful to humans but the actual chance that you will get this disease by a bite is still low.

Our immune-system will fight diseases promptly, although some people with low immune-system activity for various reasons might want to have the bite checked out by a doctor.

If your "finger" or the area where you got the bite get inflamed and more sore, even spreading, then this is a "bad" sign and a doctor should check this out.

A quick course of Antibiotics would in most cases take care of this.

A vaccine is something used as a "preemptive" strike and does not always have any desired effect after you already contracted a disease.

Does cat need a vaccine after catching a mouse?

Once a cat has caught and eaten a mouse, if the cat is going to catch anything from the mouse, it is a bit too late for vaccination... vaccination is to prevent disease, and by the time you have the cat to the vet for the booster shot, if it is infected, the infection is already past the point at which vaccination will help. If you expect that your cat will be catching mice, vaccination with periodic boosters is a good idea, as mice do carry diseases that cats can catch.
