are my coins that I transferred to a different wallet yesterday safe or not???
Yes, they're safe. (You should make sure to keep the old wallet just in case, but since your transactions were done yesterday and presumably many people will re-run all lost transactions, it shouldn't matter.)

1) If you run a mining pool or are mining solo, and have upgraded to 0.8, downgrade to 0.7

2) If you are a normal user, do not perform any important Bitcoin transactions until you get the all clear.

3) If you are a pool miner and you know your pool has not downgraded, stop mining.

4) If you performed any transactions recently, be warned that you cannot rely on them.
