Are they firm or options?
Right now, I doubt you can consider any orders to be 'firm' - especially anything more than a year out.
In during the aftermath of 9/11, Boeing production dropped from ~50 aircraft/month to about 25/month. Further, some operators would take delivery of a brand new aircraft - often without the interior - and fly them to the desert and park them.
I'm not a gloom and doom guy - I think things will recover - just like they did after 9/11 - but it's going to take a while...
