No it doesn't. However you shouldn't use UDP for log transport. You can lose as much as 95% percent of it in peaks.
Certainly UDP is not as reliable as TCP, but canonically saying you shouldn't use UDP seems a bit of an overstatement. We use UDP to collect > 15k logs per second and do not experience drops. Can you describe the 95% drop rates you have experienced?
