No, the diphtheria bacterium, known as Corynebacterium diphtheriae, is not covered in cilia. Instead, it has a characteristic club-shaped morphology and is arranged in a palisade formation. Cilia are typically found on certain types of eukaryotic cells, but bacteria like C. diphtheriae have other types of surface structures, such as pili or flagella, but not cilia.
